WASHINGTON (SR) - The White House released a statement Wednesday warning North Korea that firing a missile for any purpose would be a "provocative act" that would have dire consequences.
The statement said in part: "We have made it very clear that if the North Koreans pursue this pathway, we will insist on reviving protracted six-party talks in Pyongyang, obviously requiring a very lengthy stay in North Korea for Secretary of State Hillary Clinton."
A North Korean spokesperson called the statement a "provocation of war," and said "the DPRK will not be intimidated by the threat of any U.S. hostile action, including an extended visit by Mrs. Clinton."
